AT&T’s Regional Director Donna Byrne proposed the company’s “U-verse” service to the July session of the Jennings City Council.

As explained by Byrne, the proposal offers Jennings access to internet, digital television, home phone, and smart phone services that can be bundled together into a one-payment package. Under the 15-year franchise agreement, the city would receive five percent of all proceeds earned in the area.
